Comparing a Changed Business Rule to a Saved Business Rule

You can view the scripts of the saved version of a business rule and a changed version of the business rule to see how the two versions are different from each other, to see changes you made, or to see the scripts of a saved and changed graphical business rule side-by-side.

To compare a saved and a changed business rule:

  1. Open a graphical or calculation script business rule.
  2. Select Edit, and then Compare with saved version.

    In the Compare Scripts window:

    • If an addition was made to the business rule or calculation script, the line is displayed with a light gray background.

    • If a deletion was made from the business rule or calculation script, the line is displayed with a dark gray background.

    • If the business rule or calculation script was changed, the line is displayed with a yellow background.

    • The first column displays the line number of the business rule or calculation script.

    • The second column displays one of three characters:

      • * indicates that the line in the business rule or calculation script displayed in the left column is different from the line in the business rule or calc script displayed in the right column.

      • + indicates a new line was added to the business rule or calculation script displayed in the right column when compared to the business rule or calc script displayed in the left column.

      • – indicates a line was deleted from the business rule or calculation script displayed in the right column when compared to the business rule or calc script displayed in the left column.

    • The third and fourth columns display the saved and changed business rule or calculation script.

    • The bottom part of the window is divided into two panes that display the complete lines of the business rule or calculation script you selected in the top panes. The first pane displays the saved version of the business rule or calculation script in the left column, and the second pane displays the modified version of the business rule or calculation script in the right column. Select a row in the script to display it in the bottom pane. The saved version is on top, and the modified version is on the bottom.
